General Condition of Trade.

NEW YORK, March Ar. G. Dun

Congress has finished its work aud

measurable and anticipated in the
markets which generally score high.

Disturbances seem farther off. hoWev-
err. than Il week ago. Foreign ex-
change IS distinctly less favorable to
gold exports. The course of the stock
markets indicate. for the time foreign
buying rather than selling. A clear
increase in West bound shipments of
goods and greater activity in some
branches of the dry goods trade may
be traced to the Interstate Com-
merce hill which will go into opera
ton April l. and will effect special
rates and contracts.
Trunk lines have adopted new
Glasses and rates which are IN effect

result OF the measure is some increase

Some Improvement is u"ted in the
western trade, nut orders are still
smaller than last year, sU that fine

though Woroted WuoIs are scarce and
strong. 1t is significant that shod ~

Boots aud shoes move more freely,
hut the dizziness is felt in the leather
trade.
The pause in the iron business il
now noticed. hut prices yielded only
for speculatively or largely imported
articles. In spite of slack demand
for raw iron and important products
there is a confident tone.
The wheat speculation takes the
form of struggling between power,

and IN California which is said to hold

saves legitimate traders form the
clutch of a combination.

failure of that measure.

The Work of Congress.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-The Con-
gress which ended its existence at
noon to-day has offered striking
illustration of the constant increase
in the volume of legislation com.
manding the attention of that legisla.
tive body which has been going on
for the last three or more sessions.
More bills were introduced in both
houses, more committee reports. more
bills passed, more became laws and
more were vetoed than ever before.
Most of these measures were of COM
parative Importance, such as bills
granting private pensions and special
relief, authorizing the erection of
bridges. granting right of way and
the like, but many, not only of the
bills and reports presented. but of the
laws enacted. were of general interest
and Importance.
A number of the bills enacted into
laws were old and familiar claimants
for legislative favor. In this category
belong the Presidential succession
bill, the electoral count bill, the inter.
State commerce bill, and the bill for
the relief of Fitz John Porter. The
Forty.ninth Congress commenced its
session on the 4th day of December,
1885. and was in session until the 5th
Of August. when ii adjourned until
December 9Th. and continued in ses-
sion until It's close to-day, covering a
total period of ten months ane twen-
ty-six days. OF this time the Senate
sat In session 224 days and the House
251 days. There were introduced in
the House II, 6s8 bills and over 1853
joint resolutions, on which over 5000
reports were made, being several
thousand more bills and over thous-
and more reports than were made in
the Forty-eighth Congress, which
had, in its turn. beaten the record.
In the Senate there were introduced
3,e57 bills and 118 joint resolutions.
on which 1888 written reports were
made, being upward of 500 more bills
and over 400 more reports than in the
ecord.breaking Forty-eighth Con-
gress.
The total number of laws enaced
was approximately 1891, of which
1858 originated In the House and
1888 in the Senate. 264 of these be.
came laws by the expiration Of the
constitutional ten days. Limitation.

to the adjournment Of Congress. nine

SATURDAY, MARCH ~, 1887.

Governor Wilson, of West Vir-
ginia, has issued his proclamation
reconvening the legislature of that
State on the third Wednesday of
April next to consider and act upon
several subjects of legislation, among
them: ITO make appropriations of
public money to pay general charges
upon the treasury to make appro-
priations to pay the members of the
legislature and the salaries of officers
of the government to provide for
and secure such relief to people of
this State as may be had from the act
recently passed by Congress, entitled
AN act to regulate commerce. to
prohibit railroad companies from
carrying or conveying public officers
or delegates to political conventions
over their roads free of charge, or at
less charge than the usual rates for
other persons, and to abolish abso-
lutely the free-pass system to pro-
hibit the use of money and all other
improper means to secure nomina-
sions by political parties or election
to public Office to provide for the
acceptance and confirmation of re.
ports of joint boundary commission
on boundary between this State and
Pennsylvania; to provide for estab-
fishing boundary lines between this
State and Maryland and between this
State and Virginia"
The governor does not refer to the
election of United States Senator,
but it is believed that there will be
an election, as the work called for
cannot be accomplished before the
second Tuesday after meeting. The
extra session promises to be an inter-
esting one. Senator Kenna says there
Is no doubt but that the legislature
will have to elect Senator at its
special session, Notwithstanding GOV.
erner Wilson thinks otherwise.
